Chapter 29 Time on the Nameless Island
Two months later, in the cemetery on the west side of the nameless island.
This is the final resting place for all those who died on the island in the last great war.
Although the group did not find the body buried in the mountains, Xiao Xuan still came here from time to time.
Firstly, the place is quiet, which is suitable for his cultivation.
Secondly, Xiao Xuan erected an unmarked tomb here to commemorate those who had helped him on the island.
Wei Ziheng, Deng Fei, and the original owner of the body.
The two months of relaxation not only allowed Xiao Xuan to adapt to life in ancient times, but also changed his mindset significantly from when he first traveled through time.
Although the martial arts world is full of deceit and treachery, the camaraderie within it is something to be longed for.
Xiao Xuan tossed the shovel aside, patted the soil off the grave, then opened the wine flask on his person and poured it onto the nameless grave. This should be the last time he came to pay his respects.
"Is it ready yet?"
Hearing the coquettish urging from behind, Xiao Xuan finished the last sip of wine, turned around and said:
"Alright, alright, thank you for waiting."
After two months of living together, the island owner's granddaughter has become increasingly clingy.
What are we eating today?
Wen Qingqing jumped up with a laugh, wiped the drool from the corner of her mouth, and said:
"I still want to eat a British feast!"
"Still eating? You really aren't tired of it?"
Xiao Xuan smiled indulgently. Ever since he made fish and chips for Wen Qingqing last time, the little girl had become addicted and kept asking for more every day.
It's a pity that the island doesn't have abundant resources, otherwise Xiao Xuan could easily have shown off his skills and her favorite dish would have been eliminated.
Xiao Xuan's feelings for Wen Qingqing weren't exactly romantic; it was just that being with her always reminded him of his childhood in the countryside in his previous life.
To him, Wen Qingqing was like a playmate next door.
Wen Qingqing was only fifteen years old and hadn't yet fallen in love. Even though she often acted coquettishly, it didn't make people feel awkward, and the two of them got along quite comfortably.
"Oh dear, you're leaving soon, where am I going to eat such delicious food now!"
Xiao Xuan chuckled. Just a few days ago, Wen Qingqing was still clamoring to go back to the Central Plains with him.
However, after being disciplined by Granny Wen, it has become quite obedient now.
"I'll teach you."
Xiao Xuan took out a piece of paper from his pocket, on which was the recipe for fish and chips.
"But you'd better take it easy. The village only has so much oil, it can't withstand your gluttony. Don't end up eating more fish than you eat."
"Don't worry, Grandma won't know."
Seeing Xiao Xuan smirking, Wen Qingqing pouted angrily and quickened her pace.
The two left the cemetery and returned to the village, where they encountered two people: one was Shiwa, and the other was an older man named Tian Si, whom everyone called Brother Si.
The two of them were the islanders who returned with Thunder Dragon's ship.
"Xiao Xuan! I was just about to go find you."
Shiwa's injuries had now healed, and he looked even stronger.
"I'm still here?"
"Oh dear, Qingmei, who are you angry with this time?"
"You two!" Wen Qingqing glared at Shiwa and Tian Si, her eyes wide. "You'd better not come back!"
The boats built on the nameless island were not big enough to carry so many people, so this time Shiwa and Tian Si were the only two people to pilot the boat.
Sending Xiao Xuan back to the Central Plains also served as a convenient opportunity to complete their routine trade of goods.
"Uncle Wen said that the boat is fine and we can leave whenever we want."
"But the sun is almost setting now, so let's leave early tomorrow morning."
Hearing what Shiwa and Tian Si said, Xiao Xuan nodded. He had already waited for two months, so there was no rush for this one night.
"Well... since we're fine, let's..."
As Shiwa spoke, he struck a pose as if he was ready to fight.
Xiao Xuan immediately understood what the other party meant.
"Come on, you and Fourth Brother together."
"Ouch!" Tian Si grinned, "Then I won't hold back!"
The group arrived at an open space, took off their shirts, and revealed their muscular physiques.
For the past two months, Xiao Xuan has diligently practiced the "Body Building Boxing" left behind by Deng Fei, and his entire body has become much stronger, a stark contrast to his previous thin physique.
After discussing it with Granny Wen, he also took the initiative to leave the complete boxing technique to the village so that the villagers could strengthen their bodies and resist the Japanese pirates.
[Health-Building Boxing]
[The martial arts created by Deng Fei, the "Master of Mechanical Skills," are used to enhance physical strength.]
The movements are wide and varied, requiring extremely fast speed to interrupt the opponent's attack transitions.
Shiwa and Tian Si approached step by step, constantly changing positions, clearly having coordinated their actions beforehand.
Xiao Xuan remained in place, responding to all changes with unchanging principles.
Even without the system's prompts, he could easily handle the Jian Ti Quan (body-building boxing) now.
After all, he has now mastered the Jian Ti Quan (body-building boxing) style, and after dissecting the style, Xiao Xuan discovered that most of the movements were designed based on "radio calisthenics".
No wonder Xiao Xuan felt it was so familiar when he first saw it.
"Watch out!"
Shiwa shouted loudly and then lunged forward with a punch.
Xiao Xuan blocked and parried Shi Wa's straight punch, then turned and pushed his palm to deflect Tian Si's chest-expanding hammer strike.
"What kind of move is that?"
"Tianshan Chasing Wind Palm".
Over the course of two months, Xiao Xuan gradually grasped the true application of "Body-Building Boxing".
On its own, Jiantiquan is a remarkable style of boxing, but its true brilliance lies in its ability to be cleverly integrated into other martial arts, thereby altering the way power is generated.
Xiao used this modified "Chasing Wind Palm Technique," combining feints and real attacks, constantly changing his moves. After twenty rounds, he knocked Shiwa and Tian Si to the ground.
"Ugh! I'm not coming! I'm not coming!"
"I won't pass!"
Shiwa and Tian Si got up complaining. It was clearly the two of them who suggested the sparring, but the result was as if Xiao Xuan was bullying them.
"Brother Xiao, you've improved so quickly! You're probably even able to exchange a few blows with Grandma now, aren't you?"
"If you ask me, don't leave! Stay and fight the Japanese pirates with us!"
The fight quickly attracted the attention of the villagers. Xiao Xuan, however, was not used to being watched by so many people and shook his head repeatedly, saying:
"No, no, I wouldn't dare."
Fortunately, not long after, Wen Qingqing's father came over and said that her grandmother had summoned him, which allowed Xiao Xuan to escape from the crowd.
Upon arriving at the ancestral hall and meeting Granny Wen, she immediately got straight to the point:
"I heard you buried everything in an unmarked grave?"
Xiao Xuan frowned. Sure enough, nothing on the island could be kept from Granny Wen. He wondered if Wen Qingqing had given in to the pressure again.
"Yes, this time when I return to the Central Plains, I will probably go to many places. Taking it with me would be dangerous, so it is safest to leave it here."
Grandma Wen nodded, fully approving of Xiao Xuan's actions.
"But what will you do?"
"To be honest, Grandma, I've actually memorized everything."
"Oh?"
Grandma Wen nodded in disbelief, after all, she didn't know how much was written in "Scientific Martial Arts Training Method".
In fact, given Xiao Xuan's mental capacity, it would be impossible for him to remember every single word.
However, during these two months, he fully developed his abilities and discovered many ingenious uses.
In summary, Xiao Xuan likened his ability to provide hints to a "personal sprite".
When you encounter a problem, you can ask it anytime. As long as you are energetic, the little elf will give you the answer.
When Xiao Xuan was practicing Jian Ti Quan (a martial arts style), he forgot about the next chapter while practicing, and that page immediately appeared in front of him.
Therefore, as long as Xiao Xuan deliberately recalls, his prompting ability will present him with the contents of "Scientific Martial Arts Training Method," which saves him a lot of trouble.
After saying goodbye to Granny Wen, it got dark.
The villagers held a farewell banquet for Xiao Xuan, and the night passed quickly amidst the clinking of glasses.
